Abstract
A crusher is disclosed having a rotatable eccentric, a main shaft supported to the eccentric, a piston for adjusting the vertical position of the main shaft and an axial thrust bearing between the lower end of the main shaft and the piston. The thrust bearing has an upper bearing attached to the lower end of the main shaft, a lower bearing attached to the piston, and a pressure plate between the upper bearing and the lower bearing. A circular groove or expansion is formed onto the pressure plate. A releasing member is attached to a crusher structure outside of the pressure plate. The releasing member has a circular lip directed to the direction of the pressure plate. Part of the lip is in the groove or above the part of the extension. The releasing member is attached to the piston.
